Listen Here: THE BEST SNOOSE EVER

I'll allow it could be possible, but I'll be amazed if we ever find a better Snoose Junction recording than this one:

http://www.archive.org/details/Snoose2007-06-26.Jewelbox

(Although... that one on CD-R Volume 2 is really nice in a completely different way... and this one doesn't even have Evan on it anywhere!! Hmm... I guess debating about the merits of different shows is part of the fun, yes?)

The sound is very guitar heavy - a nice big room to stretch out in - sparse pounding drum beats and droning distortion, washed-out space-keys and deranged vocals from Foss and Julianna The Human Theremin. Very Krautrock. Cause to rejoice.

This was recorded at the Rendezvous / Jewelbox Theater, a bit off the Snoose Junction beaten path, all the way out there in Belltown, Seattle, Earth.


Personnel includes:
John Leighton Beezer (guitar), 5-Track (bass guitar), Gerry Amandes (guitar), Vince Amandes (drums), John Foss (voices in your head), Julianna Brandon (The Human Theremin), Troy Swanson (keys etc)



"Songs" include:

01 Snoose In The Jewelbox
02 The Human Theremin / Calling Planet Ballard / Get Man Back Into Space
03 Swim Before You Crawl / D BOON Died Too Young!!
04 Jeff & Louise (Back Into Space reprise)

Track 3 is for Watt



If you need instant gratification, start with track 2. But it's ALL good. Just a lot of it hangs around a slow boil for infinite durations of shimmerness.


love & good luck,
5-Track

Snoose Junction volume 4 - free music for your life

I'd been planning, for, like, years, to make this another CDr release, straight from the master minidisc to your earholes... But, thing is, there's studio recordings which are bound to come out and they, well, were recorded a lot better than these. So if I'm gonna ask for money for those, maybe I shouldn't be asking money for these. So - no more lo-fi CDrs - just hi-fi ones. And Snoose Junction volume 4 is now available here:

...featuring musical contributions from Lindsay Vari, John Foss, Evan Strauss, 5-Track and friends.

These are an assortment of excerpts from the Snoose conflagration of October 2008 which took place in the Chromasound Studios (last known home of the Greenwood Posse), compiled by John Leighton Beezer from the original 2-track recordings. Included is most of an improv set by Consider The Source, as well as jams featuring Gerry Amandes, Andrew Woods, 5-Track & John Foss and so forth. So far I like what I hear.
